The house

More from Narciso Rodriguez

Narciso Rodriguez is an American house whose perfume story began in 2003 with For Her, and nearly everything since circles one idea: musk. Here it is soft and powdery, wrapped in white flowers, rose and a little vanilla, with cedar, vetiver or patchouli underneath. Start with Narciso Rodriguez For Her, the original musk with a warm floral glow. Narciso Poudree is cleaner and softer, with a woody base. All Of Me turns the musk towards rose. Sonia Constant is one of the perfumers behind the range.
